D)cDNA libraries only contain information from genes that have been transcribed.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A cDNA library only contains information from genes that have been transcribed, while a genomic library contains information from the entire genome, including introns and non-coding regions. Additionally, cDNA libraries are constructed by reverse transcription of mRNA, which results in a more stable library with less chance of degradation.
